Great 3D renders (SG1)



https://www.shipbrook.com/jeff/raytrace/more-stargate.html
I usually don't get all worked up about 3D stuff, nowadays.
We've hit the point where it's getting hard to tell, and nothing ever seems to jump out as "FANTASTIC" to me.

But..

Blinkin' eck!

These are great!!

To be honest, I could tell straight away that that's a render, not real. The lighting gives it away - look at the shadows!

I agree with shroom. While these are good images, I've seen far better and I wouldn't call them photo realistic.

Yeah. i think there's something with the picture detail that gives it away too. Looking at the bars on the floor of one of the pictures, they're very clear - too clear, it seems, to be realistic.

but then, maybe that's just me.

I was just impressed by the fact that one guy had achieved all of that immense detail, as opposed to being bitchy about the lights.

But sure, you guys are right. That light sucks.

Wow, how could I possibly have been so stupid.

In fact, looking at his other stuff..
Wow... This guy SUCKS! Thank god we have professionals around, who weren't make crap like this in 1997!
Hahaha!
That's rubbish!
My cat could do better than that..


*Note : I was being extremely sarcastic in this post, and I still think it's bloody well incredibly impressive.. God, damnit, you guys whinge your arses off.
Don't EVER use the Freeware POV-Ray renderer, as it makes lights look a bit off.

You were marketing it as if it was the next generation of graphics which had arrived - the next Crysis killer - and it thus received criticism for not being of that standard. I don't see any mention in your original post that this is impressive because it was made by a single man. In fact, I didn't know that was the case. If I ever were to make a 3D game I'd love to have this quality of graphics in my game, but it's not state of the art. It's all relative.

I agree with Phoenix and Shroom here, in your own words you say:
Jayenkai We've hit the point where it's getting hard to tell
However for us, with these well made renders, this is simply far from true.

Very, very good work, but not photo realistic.
